We have written this book because of our unique and real concern for improving education for children who are "at risk" of school failure. Whether these students are of different ethnicities or speak different languages, the students are not failures, but have difficulty maneuvering in a system we call school. In order to improve education, we have to improve schools and the practices of school leaders. This transformation of schools requires change and improvement of individuals in school leadership positions. In order to change school leaders and their practices toward improvement, we must replicate what is working for kids through reflective practice. Osterman and Kottkamp (1993) offered this perspective: We believe that reflective practice, an approach to educational improvement that is both situational and places the professional in the very center of the attempt to create improvement not only stands in contrast to most other current ideas but has the greatest potential of any approach improving individuals and, through them, schools and education. (p. vii) The book was written because we share professional practices and intellectual interests in reflection and reflective practice. We are passionate that reflection has the best hope and significant change in how leaders examine their personal beliefs, values, and behaviors in such a way that members of the school community realize that it is they who must adapt their practices to meet the needs of students at risk and the diverse communities they serve. However, before we discuss the importance of reflective practice, we need to arrive at a definition of reflective practice. Schon (1983) defines reflective practice as "the capacity to reflect on action so as to engage in a process of continuous learning." Similarly, Bolton (2010) stated that reflective practice involves "playing critical attention to practical values and theories which inform everyday action, by examining practice reflectively and reflexively. This leads to developmental insight." Another idea by Boud et al. (1985) states, "Reflection is an important human activity in which people recapture their experience, think about it, mull it over and evaluate it. It is this working with experience that is important in learning." As for education, Larrivee (2000) argues, "Reflective practice refers to the process of the educator studying his or her own teaching methods and determining what works best for students. It involves the consideration of the ethical consequences of classroom procedures on students."

Reflective Practice: A Multi-unicultural Perspective for Leaders, supports leaders as they reflect on their own practices and who are committed to improving the educational quality of schools, as well those leaders who want to improve their own professional development and practices. Educational school leaders, public and private organizations with diverse student and employee populations, who choose to incorporate reflective practices in their daily leadership (introspection), will develop more effective administrative skills. Illuminating Griffith's (1979) idea "that educating must be grounded in the ordinary experiences of individual people and expressed in ordinary language; we have attempted to explain conceptual terms in simple language and to illustrate these concepts using examples drawn from everyday experiences."

As a school administrator, instructional coach, or teacher leader, you know that reflective teachers are effective teachers. But how can you help teachers become self-reflective practitioners whose thoughtful approach translates into real gains for student achievement? In Creating a Culture of Reflective Practice—a companion volume to their teacher-oriented book Teach, Reflect, Learn—authors Pete Hall and Alisa Simeral draw on lessons learned from educators across grade levels, content areas, and district demographics to present a definitive guide to developing a culture of reflective practice in your school. Hall and Simeral expand on ideas originally presented in Building Teachers’ Capacity for Success to help you gain a clear understanding of your role and responsibilities—and those of your teachers—within each stage of the Continuum of Self-Reflection. Armed with the book’s real-life examples and research-based tools, you’ll learn how to determine the current location of all stakeholders on the continuum and how teacher-leadership activities, transformational feedback, and strategic coaching can move them forward. The end result? A schoolwide culture that both values reflection and uses it to ensure that teachers—and their students—reach their fullest potential.

In conclusion, the long-term goal for conducting bereavement is for the adolescent to develop skills and tasks that are necessary for entry into adulthood. Individuals will learn to understand the reality, to comprehend the inevitability, and to explore the mysteries of life and death. Indubitably, a more profound meaning and goal may emanate when one ponders the subject of death. In so doing, life and death become tangible concepts when the illusion of our earthly immortality is repudiated and when the irreversible inevitability of the death of others and ones self is challenged. The pricelessness of life becomes manifest and obvious when we courageously choose to conscientiously know ourselves as MidnightSunrise.

This volume builds upon emergent understandings about educational leadership and policy in hopes of continuing to refine our understanding of what effective leadership means in linguistically and culturally diverse school contexts. The volume seeks to entrench a deeper understanding of the broader leadership policies and practices that promote the success of linguistically and culturally diverse students, while also recognizing that effective leadership can be highly dependent on context. It offers original empirical research that enhances an understanding of the interdependencies between leadership, culture, language, and policy (i.e., the mechanisms that engender or hinder successful stewardship of linguistic and cultural plurality). The confluence of school leadership, linguistic diversity, and multiculturalism makes this volume unique, especially considering the pace at which global migration continues to accelerate, coupled with the need to accommodate an array of diverse learning needs in today’s schools.
